Good Ideas : Tea Garden in a Box

Gardening editor Stephen Orr likes to give friends this portable garden, which contains the ingredients for tisane, or herbal tea. To make one, plant mint, rose geranium, pineapple sage, and lavender in a wooden wine crate or other container with ample drainage. To get the gift to keep on giving, be sure to tell the recipient to place it in full sun outdoors and to pluck a few sprigs for morning tea or for adding to black tea.Source :Garden Ideas
